Meghan Sullivan, a University of Notre Dame professor of philosophy who is leading a research project on AI and religion, said that using AI to draft anything spoken in worship reflects a basic misunderstanding of what Christians believe is happening when a preacher delivers a homily. Churches, in her view, might be among the last institutions where people are asked to sit still, in silence, and encounter another human being without mediation. “Martin Luther is rolling over in his grave,” she said, at the idea of handing scripture off to what she calls a theological software middleman.

Gallup did also ask about attendance at religious services, and found that the share of young men who say they attend religious services at least once a month increased by seven percentage points in the span of two years, making them statistically tied in that metric with their female counterparts in the poll’s findings. But David Campbell, a professor of political science at the University of Notre Dame, points out that other surveys that measure weekly attendance haven’t shown the same spike among young men.

“Excluding candidates who engage in deception in their efforts to appear on the ballot is hardly new,” Notre Dame law professor Derek Muller recently wrote. “The courts routinely permit states to filter out candidates who are ‘frivolous.’ Indeed, the Supreme Court has been quite clear on this issue.” On that point, he says, Judge Matthews’s holding “should be explicitly reversed by the Alaska Supreme Court.”

Rick Garnett, law professor at The University of Notre Dame, explained that much of the criticism of the decision came from the right. “People who are really angry with the majority and strongly in support of the dissent, they tend to neglect the fact that even the dissenting justices agreed…that the Constitution would require citizenship for quite a few people who were born from people who were present unlawfully,” he said.

The anthropologist Lee Gettler speculates that “low-T” fatherhood is basically an adaptation to circumstances: when new dads are immersed in the work of parenting—bathing infants and changing their diapers, or helping older kids navigate the emotional complexities of middle school—it simply doesn’t make sense for them to be “hormonally focused on competition and aggression.”

“Justice Alito had a hand in many of the most influential decisions, held together majorities and continued to write in ways that advanced many of the conservative legal movement’s causes over the last 50 years,” said Derek T. Muller, a professor and election law expert at Notre Dame’s law school. “It’s a vote of confidence from the chief, and suggests a respect for his mind, his craft and his ability to keep a majority together in high-profile cases in which the justices might divide on how broadly they want to resolve something,” said Sherif Girgis, a law professor at Notre Dame who was a law clerk for the justice.
